The horror world has lost a legend. Actor, writer and director from Michigan, Scott Spiegel, has passed away at 67, according to longtime friend and collaborator, Bruce Campbell.<\/p>\n
Campbell, who starred in the \u201cEvil Dead\u201d film series, posted a tribute to Spiegel on X<\/a> going back to their days growing up in Metro Detroit.<\/p>\n \u201cThis is a big personal loss,\u201d Campbell wrote. \u201cScott Spiegel was a huge part of my formative years back in Michigan. From Sunday school to being stock boys together, to \u201dEvil Dead II,” which Scott co-wrote, I can\u2019t look in the rear view mirror without seeing this unique guy doing cheap gags. I\u2019m grateful for the treasure trove of happy memories. Keep Shemping, Scott!”<\/p>\n As Campbell mentioned, Spiegel co-wrote the second \u201cEvil Dead\u201d movie. He also had roles in numerous films like \u201cDrag Me to Hell,\u201d \u201cSpider-Man,\u201d \u201cSpider-Man 2,\u201d \u201cFrom Dusk Till Dawn 2,\u201d \u201cRed,\u201d and \u201cLionheart.\u201d<\/p>\n He also directed \u201cFrom Dusk Till Dawn 2\u2033 and \u201cHostel 3.\u201d<\/p>\n No cause of death has been announced.<\/p>\n If you purchase a product or register for an account through a link on our site, we may receive compensation.
